"It's a pretty good gun, I feel right in the middle of great and terrible.

Its got 345 FPS, which for a C.Q.B environment (What a bullpup's pretty much made for; tight corners etc.) is just about perfect. Its a semi cheap gun, but I can vouch for it. Me and my friends have had crosmans for 4 years that just broke like...a year ago. All of the crosmans we had were 120 dollar guns and they lasted us 4-5 years. This gun for 175, it'll last you; or it should, last you longer then that. Its not the best quality, nor is it pushing 300 dollar quality, like I feel alot of experienced airsofters are used to. They compare this to a 300 dollar gun and yeah; it cant compare. Its budget airsoft.

As fair as the one metal piece it comes with, the M4 magazine is weird. It fits the Tavor perfectly and fit in my Stag Arms M4, scratching a lil paint off the magazine, however it refuses to fit in my Echo1 416.

I would recommend 2 things when buying this gun. Get the $15 alluminum rail kit, it replaces the ABS rail and gives you a side rail, balances out the gun a lil more. Also keep in mind due to how low the irons & rail are, you will need a raised optic if you intend on wearing lower face protection.

And Yes, it is ABS, but like I said, Me and my friends have had crosmans last us 4-5 years. Crosman plastic is definitely a lower standard then this ABS, you'll be fine.

ON ANOTHER NOTE!! The video for this says it has an ABS gearbox and said there would be a &#34;Metal gearbox version&#34;. The one I ordered came WITH a metal gearbox. I dont really know whats up with that, but I figured it was worth mentioning.

I havent fielded mine yet so I will update this when I do.

"The gun is pretty good. Unlike the description says, it comes with an 8.4 1100 mah battery and a cheap charger, which I would recommend replacing. It has a metal outer barrel, and everything that is metal on the real tar is metal, except for the top rail. FPS is about 330 with .2 g bbs for me. The bolt catch is metal, and also shows the hop up while releasing spring tension. When you have the front and rear sight flipped up, it's hard to use if you have a hat or mask, so I only use the front sight. The rof is decent or slightly good, like 12 RPS with a 9.6 and 18 with my lipo.

Pros:
Cqb legal fps
Good external build
Actually comes with a battery and charger
Bolt catch sounds good and releases spring tension
When battery is installed, it isn't back heavy like other bullpups
Looks way cooler than augs (might be a con for LOSERS)
Rof is better than most bullpups
Accurate at a distance (up to 120 feet)
Quick change spring gearbox and easy gearbox access
Gearbox has metal bearings

Cons:
Small battery compartment (won't fit my 1000 mah lipo without lots of adjustment)
Rear sight a bit hard to look through
Weird to wind a hi cap mag
Mags that didn't come with gun have a bit of wobble and the mag that it does come with fits very tight
Can't mount any slings unless you buy sling mounts

Overall, I give it a 4.5 out of 5, but that isn't an option. Compared to other bullpups, it's small and compact. (Unlike the 12 pound aug) The internals are also better than most bullpups at the price for having a quick change spring and 8mm metal bushings. If you want something other than a m4 or ak, or just want a bullpup, I reccomend it compared to other bullpups.

"Why is everyone saying it has a high rate of fire. This is probably the gun with the slowest rate of fire right out of the box for it's price. If you are looking for a good aeg do not get this one try one of the Raiders from G&G Raider series thoughs are good.

"This was a disappointment. Lets face it, guns under 200$, you can't expect much (unless it's side arms). Usually the only good primary field rifle under 200 are sniper rifles. AEG's under 200 are known to have a max effective range of maybe 100-150 feet. Same goes with this gun. Effectively you can fire 100-150 feet. With hop up yes this can reach 200 feet, maybe even 250 feet, but past 150 feet you are basically lobbing a 10 foot or wider grouping at them. So you're lucky if 1 in 50 rnds hit the target.

When I got this gun I planned to have it converted to a polarstar. Long story short a lot of the &#34;pro polorstar techs&#34; refuse to do tavors because they are a pain to set up due to the custom gearbox. They will however do the new Wolverine xlt.

My biggest issue with this is that it's not close to real steel. I ordered a custom aircraft aluminum hand guard, made for the real steel tar-21, and it doesn't fit. The fitting on this rifle is too wide, too short, and the screws it would set into, are actually fake screws. So i'm trying to find someone local that has the Ares version, to see if it would fit on that one.

Internally this thing is a nightmare for upgrades. Even the simplest of upgrades (inner barrel, motor, hop up) are a pain to get to. Each and all basically include taking majority of the gun apart, including a good bit of the gearbox. There is no &#34;cheap and simple&#34; upgrades in this gun. it's not like an M4 that you can just switch a barrel out in 3 minutes, a motor in 3, a hop up in 5. Each will take considerably longer.

Also I use KWA pmags. I used to use them on m416 and had to cut a little bit off the front of them to fit. They fit into this magwell, but slip out. While i'm wondering if maybe the part I cut out is what's making it slip it, i'm pretty sure the part that the mag clip hits isn't tall enough. So be aware this might not work with many M4 mags.

Honestly if you are just starting airsoft and looking for a cheap starter gun, I would recommend heading towards a M4. I used to love m4's, now I hate them considering everyone and their grandma has an M4 or M4 variant, but they are the most straight forward to upgrade, cheapest to upgrade, and have the most variety of upgrades.

I would only recommend this gun in CQB environments. Field, a good player that knows how to sneak, stalk, and choose his shots carefully, can still make kills with this, but otherwise, spend more for a better rifle, or get a sniper rifle.

"So far this is a wonderful gun. a tad bit backheavy, but that is to be expected from a bullpup. Fun to shoot so far, still tweaking the hop a bit. The only problem I have run into so far is that the gun doesnt seem to want to take magazines other than the one it came with (the mag lock wont lock properly with echo 1 M4 mags). High ROF with a 9.6, but you get an electrical smell from the stock when you fire. havent skirmished with it yet, will most likely be an awesome skirmish gun.

PROS
Good weight
Nice solid composite body
The metal is solid
High ROF
looks crazy
near perfect match to the real weapon

CONS
Wont seem to take echo M4 mags
Electrical smell after short periods of firing
its "that gun" from call of duty.

So all around awesome, Good looking gun, unfortunately they put it into a modern warfare game so now its just "that gun from MWF2". still a very nice gun.

"This gun a is an incredibley well made gun. The polymer that its made of feels unbreakable in your hands. The accuracy is simply amazing as the bulpup design allows a very long barrell. I can see myself being able to dominate in any scenario be it CQB or Field play.

"Ive owned this weapon for a few months now and I have to say it has held up incredibly well. Now the price tag may seem a bit unreasonable at first but I can with the utmost confidence that every dollar is well spent.

Short Story
I went to an outdoor airsoft skirmish sporting this weapon and was very impressed. The length of the barrel due to the bulpup design of the rifle allowed me to put up an accurate wall of bbs. And because the weapon itself is quite compact, I found it very easy to manuver in close quarters spaces. Near the beginning of the war the ever feared clouds rolled in and delivered upon the mass of airsoft players and unrelenting rain. However, not once was I worried as the Tar was easily able to cope with the strenious conditions and kept firing throughout the entire event. I can also say that the constant "Hey dude, nice Tar" was a nice benefit.

The overall construction of this weapon is incredibaly solid, Ive never felt as though it might break at any point during my use with it. Battery installation is a snap, as the butt plate easily opens up to reveal the compartment. One problem Ive had though is that some of the M4 mags Ive purchased do not fit into the magwell quite as snugly as I would have liked, but this is just my opinion.

Get this gun!!! It is awsome

"I have owned this model Tavor for close to a month now. The performance is pretty good, but does not have the same range as my Ares G36. The battery compartment is a tad small, but more than enough to fit my MadBull LiPo. The gun is indeed difficult to take apart, highly recommend that this be done by a pro if you are not very proficient. The Ares quick change spring feature lets you change the FPS of the rifle in as little as two minutes, allowing for incredible game flexibility.

I have decided to upgrade the internals, as the piston is not very sturdy and a want to juice as much performance as I can from this little big gun.

Cons
* difficult to take apart
* small battery compartment
* gearbox and hop-up are one unit
* known for some problems with weak piston and air seal

Overall:
One of my favorite rifles. I recommend it to anyone who has the skill to use it and the patience to tweak it right.

"This is honestly the finest airsoft battle rifle I have ever owned, better than my Masada, better than my KWA SR10. Sleek, sturdy, rugged, reliable, simple, this is truly a one of a kind AEG. ARES have outdone themselves and brought to the table a fascinating airsoft gun thatís not only accurate but short in length.
Pros.
- Nylon Fiber Body
- Tactical Rails
- Bullpup design
- Battery compartment fits 9.6v 1600 Butterfly or Nun chuck with ease
- The guard in front of the Pistol Grip protects your hand
- Completely Ambidextrous aside from fire selector
- Charging Handle and rail can be switched to either side
- QD spring Change
- Tight Bore Barrel comes standard but diameter is unknown (I switched the barrel for an Angel Custom 500mm 6.01)
- Simplistic Design
- Bolt catch button resets internals to a resting position kinda like VFCís M4s but not really.
- Black Flash hider included ( get a more aggressive one, the birdcage style is kinda lame)
- Great Rate of fire, very surprised with results from 9.6v
- Great range due to tight bore barrel
- Very accurate
- Those weird shapes and the circular thing behind the rear iron sight is used for real steel grade Tavor 21accessories and I have a 5x magnifier from IWI itself attached to help out the EOTech I have mounted
- Disassembly is a pain but when you disassemble the platform once you want to do it over and over again, now I know how the Tar 21ís firing mechanism, safety, trigger, charging handle, and most parts on the gearbox work, of course I know how Gearboxes work. (con for most) (visit redwolfairsoft for disassembly instructions)
- Trademarks All around
- Extremely Realistic (my uncle owns a Tar 21)
- Serial number
Cons.
- Magazine catch irritates your hand because it constantly pokes your hand
- Might accidentally bump into the mag catch with trigger hand and eject mag causing you to probably lose a clip
- Iron sights are not adjustable for windage and elevation
- Trigger become squeaky after some time (just spray the springs with lubricant)
- Semi auto stops working but is an easy fix (idk how I did it but I did)
- The Nylon Fiber is kinda smooth so I recommend wearing gloves
- The QD sling mounts attached to the stock are NOT made to fit ANY QD sling adapter what so ever. I tried and because it didnít fit I had to make my own sling point on the stock. The rings that were supposed to be engraved inside the adapter were not present and even if they were my QD sling swivel wouldnít have fit
- Not enough rail space on top for an ACOG
- Outer Barrel is a bit wobbly, not too much but enoug

"So I picked this gun up for my brother a week ago, straight out of the box it seemed pretty nice. It has a good weight and looks pretty cool.

However, when we were taking the gun out to zero his red dot, we noticed a problem with the mid-caps we got. He slapped a mag in, and as he stood up to head outside the mag slid right out of the magwell and onto the ground.

Now this is not a problem for the Hi-cap mag that came with the gun. The problem seems to be with the little tab on top of the mag that houses the spring that keeps the bbs in the mag. The little tab on the mid-caps was longer than the one on the hi-cap.
(The mid-caps i bought were the Matrix 120rd Metal mid-caps)

As long as you take a close look at that tab on the mags you're going to buy you should be fine.

Also, you have to get really low on the weapon to see though a normal red dot or your iron sights. If you are wearing a full mask, it is impossible to use sights on this gun (iron or otherwise). You will either have to get a rail riser, or a sight with a cantilever mount.

Pro's
-Feels Solid
-Bolt locks back for hop-up access

Con's
-Pain to use with full mask
-Less of a selection of Mags

If you have to wear a mask, I would give it a 3/5
Otherwise a 4/5

"I got this out of a mystery box and I have to say I'm impressed. Like the other review said, there is a noticeable seam along the gun, but it is only visible if you are within 5 feet of it. The top rail also wiggles a bit, but is not so bad as to where I'm upset. Also, mine has a small burr mark from molding on the underside of the gun, but that isn't visible and I'm pretty sure it is not on every model that gets out.

Other than that, this gun is amazing. Mine only has the CQB range, and I would not use it for field gaming, but a new right bore barrel will do wonders on this gun. Also, mine is shooting a bit hot at 370 fps, and with the new barrel performs better than any other gun in this price range, especially a Combat Machine, (which I have and have compared it to head to head). I am able to fit a 9.6 volt nunchuk battery in it, although it haut fits. This gun also has a functioning bolt catch and decocker, something I just stumbled upon and very pleased with. However, if you have a full face mask the iron sights are too low, but I don't use them because I don't like the rear sight at all, but that's just a personal preference. It is a simple fix if you have a red dot, or I took an M4 rear sight and with that on the iron sights are useable. Also want to mention it has full Tavor trade marks.

Pros:
Best out of any other gun in price range
Very nicely textured metal body
Accurate
Quick-change spring system
Functioning bolt catch and spring decompresser
Can fit a 9.6 nunchuk
Full trades
You get so much more than what you pay for with the internals

Cons:
Shoots hotter than 350 (not really a con just not what I was expecting)
For field, range leaves a lot to be desired
Wobbly top rail/piece
Bad rear sight
Seam
Small molding mark underneath
You get what you pay for with the body
